Under the Veil I Rule (Amara) novel Chapter 657

“Grandpa, have you eaten? How have you been these past few days?”

Mr. Kevin Everly replied that he had, and took Hogan’s hand, exchanging a few words with him.

Although he had his reservations about Hogan—believing he could never quite measure up to Finnian—Hogan hadn’t done anything truly out of line, except for having supported Liliana in the past. Overall, Mr. Kevin Everly was still rather fond of Hogan, and ended up talking with him for quite a while.

Seeing the two of them engrossed in conversation, Amara decided to give them some privacy and stepped out for a walk.

Just as she entered the living room, a young woman in her early twenties, with delicate features and simple clothes, approached her and said, “Ms. Sullivan, may I have a word with you?”

Amara looked up at her.

She recognized the girl—Tina—who was one of the maids responsible for cleaning the floors in the Everly household.

Amara recalled that Mr. Kevin Everly had once mentioned Tina was from a rural area. She had been a good student in school, but her parents hadn’t let her continue her education, so she’d been forced to leave school early and work.

Tina tended to keep a low profile in the house; she was the diligent, quiet type. Although Amara had seen her many times, they had never spoken before.

“Of course. What is it?”

Amara was genuinely curious about what Tina wanted.

“Ms. Sullivan, could we talk over there?” Tina pointed to a quiet corner where no one else was around.

Amara nodded, and the two of them walked over. Once they stood in the corner, Tina glanced around to make sure no one was watching before lowering her head.

She nervously fidgeted with the hem of her shirt, looking timid and hesitant.
